The Complete Innova Daedalus Collection
Welcome to your new secret weapon for max distance. The Innova Daedalus Collection features one of the most forgiving 13-speed distance drivers on the market. Normally, picking up a Speed 13 driver means you need a massive, tour-level arm just to keep the disc in the air. But thanks to its heavily understable design and incredible glide, the Daedalus lets intermediate and advancing players unlock huge, sweeping distance lines. Whether you are chasing tailwind bombs or trying to dial in your first big S-curve, browse our live inventory below to find the perfect Daedalus for your Innova lineup.
Understanding the Flight Dynamics & Profile
With flight numbers of 13 | 6 | -3 | 2, the Daedalus is built to stay in the air as long as possible. The wide 2.3 cm rim gives it the speed it needs to cut through the air, while the -3 turn means it naturally wants to flip up and turn over instead of crashing out early. This combination results in a beautiful, long flight path that maximizes distance for players who don't necessarily throw 450+ feet.
How the Daedalus fits your game:
- Beginners & Advancing Players: It’s one of the few 13-speed drivers that won't punish you. The understability helps keep the disc straight longer, giving you a taste of true distance driver distance.
- Intermediate Arms: This is your go-to disc for effortless hyzer-flips and huge, panning S-curves in wide-open fields.
- Advanced Players: High-power throwers love the Daedalus for massive downwind drives, long sweeping turnovers, or as a dedicated max-distance roller.
Choose the Right Plastic Blend for Your Game
The plastic you choose will affect both the grip and how quickly your Daedalus beats in. Compare these premium Innova blends in our inventory:
- Champion Line: Innova’s ultra-durable, translucent plastic. It usually starts out a tiny bit more stable than Star and will hold its original flight characteristics for a very long time, making it great for players who want their disc to season slowly.
- Star Line: The flagship premium opaque blend. It offers an incredible balance of high-end durability and all-weather grip. It beats in a little faster than Champion, helping you reach that perfect understable sweet spot sooner.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Daedalus
Is the Daedalus too fast for a beginner?
Generally, a 13-speed disc is too fast for brand-new players. However, because the Daedalus has a -3 turn and a huge 6 glide, it is one of the most forgiving high-speed drivers available. While total beginners should stick to fairways and midranges, players who are starting to build their arm speed can definitely use the Daedalus to squeeze out extra distance.
How does Star plastic compare to Champion for the Daedalus?
Star plastic provides a grippier, slightly softer feel in the hand and usually beats in a bit faster than Champion. A brand new Star Daedalus will likely show its understable flight characteristics slightly sooner than a brand new Champion Daedalus, which tends to start off a tiny bit more stable and rigid.
What is the Daedalus best used for?
The Daedalus is best for max distance throws in open fields, especially when you have a tailwind helping push the disc down the fairway. It is fantastic for hyzer-flips and big, panning S-curves where you have plenty of room to work the disc from left to right (for a right-handed backhand thrower).
